A Lycoming from a Cord or Auburn. Supercharged of course
I've got AC in the Hup. Hot Rod Air system with heat. Underdash unit. The price was right, shipping was fast and tech support glad to answer any...
I'll be going to this one, its about 30-40 miles south of J'ville. Always lots of nice rides. Saturday, July 5, 2008 Classy-Chassis Car Show &...
I had my running boards done top and bottom in black as well as all the fender interiors with Rhino liner. I bought a nice grey color ribbed...
Better catch it before it gets away! Using this logic my fingers shouldn't be safe anymore after I've trimmed my nails.
Here's 3 things to check: (1)Dizzy bushings. When worn out spark becomes intermittant because dwell is all over the place. (2) Remove the rag that...
You'll have a hard time finding an inverter rated for enough current to pull the clutch and fan loads. Most were made for radios and other low...
Cooper Cobra raised letter tires work great. I got 3" whites out of mine.
Saturday, July 5, 2008 Classy-Chassis Car Show & Country Flea Market The most memorable show of the summer takes place under big old shade trees...
292 L6, 390 cfm Holley, TH200R4 trans, 3.53 rear. 16mpg city, 25-27 highway.
You absolutely can get decent mileage with a 292. I get 20 mpg around town with my foot in it and 25+ on the highway at 70mph. Like others have...
Cool idea. I'm not real gungho on the execution though. The proportions aren't right. Now if it had a Rat Fink figure in a topless cab... that...
Purple power, a broom and water hose. Works every time.
That is a model R Hupmobile manufactured from 1917-1925
The 250 balancer isn't heavy enough for the 292. The water pump and pulleys should be the same. You may have to raise the engine.
You really don't need the clamps for the running board...or the running board. That way you know your dog would hang around the car. Actually if...
I had my covered with rhino liner then glued a thick ribbed carpet runner on top. I think they look great.
I'm gonna buy stimulants of course
Where? I can't find a listing anywhere.
What have you used for window sweeps? You know the rubber squeegee-like stuff at the bottoms, inside and out, of the windows. They might also be...
Cherry Point and Lejeune are poised for an influx of 19,000 additional personnel in the next couple of years. Last I heard Seymore Johnson was...
Yeah they're stock. I definately don't want the car any lower. Speed bumps are hell now.
Or maybe I should use air shocks? The Hup is a bit too low with a few passengers. A slight road dip or cornering will cause the tires to rub the...
I've got one in the Hup (my daily). Runs like a scalded dog. 16mpg around town, 20-22 hwy. No problem towing a large boat or full size car/trailer...
There's a guy here that would give you a lot of clams for that. That guy is me. How would 2 bushels do? I'll throw in a bushel of oysters too so...
That doesn't look like a Hupmobile "H" either. Harmon maybe?
I bought a Clifford intake on ebay for about $70 and a new Holley 390 for another $160. I get better mileage than I did with the monojet on my 292.
I used an 88 Cherokee mc. 11" disc up front and drum rear (recently switched the rear to disc as well, same mc). If you've got firewall space to...
I've got a 200R4 in my car. Its behind a mild 292 L6. Rear gears are 3.54. Tires are 27". The trans was built for me with a shift kit and ECU...
I have a tach under the hood of the Hup. Handy for carb setup and I couldn't find room inside to put it.
Separate names with a comma.
